Snow Tubing At Wintergreen Resort.

Yesterday we loaded the car and drove a little over an hour to Wintergreen Resort for snow tubing!

The Plunge is Virginia's largest tubing park. Imagine being on top of a ten story building and looking out over a hill that's longer than three football fields. Now imagine going downhill on a tube at speeds reaching 30 mph.

That's The Plunge!


We did it ... and it was a blast!!!


This is our 2nd visit to Wintergreen Resort ... but our first time experiencing The Plunge!


Mike, Griffin and Bett all linked up to tube together. We quickly learned that all of us tubing down together was the most fun.


Here you can see Mike, Griffin and me going down ...


I thought this was a pretty picture ... the snow tubing hill with one of the ski slopes in the background. Maybe next year we will be brave enough to learn to ski.


If there is a tractor anywhere around ... Griffin will find it!


Me, Bett, Griffin and Mike waiting for our turn to snow tube.


Mike and Griffin take one final ride down the mountain.


Griffin giving Daddy a big hug and thank you for a wonderful day!

    My family went last year and I agree, it was so much fun. We plan to go again in February. It can get costly if you have a big family. Your scrapbooking looks interesting, too. Thanks!
